Thanks Wayne first time trying it, possible beginner gains or the insulina taurina effects from the energy drink consumed mid session..Hope to improve this over near future and will add in a few pull ups each week

Todaybench press
Up to 110 in fives then 3x5@110.
Deadlift
Up to 220 then about 7 @190 then 3 X 2 @140.
Deadlines felt good, looking forward to training picking up over next few months, seen there is a competition in Glasgow tgis year which is the closest I can find to Edinburgh so will look into this as it would be good to have something to train towards.
